Fitzgeralds Reno closes

After 32 years next to the Reno Arch over Virginia Street, Fitzgeralds Casino Hotel pulled the plug on its slot machines and closed the doors for good on November 30.

The plan for the property, announced by owner Fernando Leal (of L3 Development, owner of the Montage condo project), is to reopen the building in two to three years as a hotel with convention space, indoor entertainment center, shops, restaurants, and no casino.

Refurbishing Fitzgeralds will be part of a bigger downtown development effort that includes the Montage and the train trench cover project, currently under construction.
